Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Absalom, and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem,.... At the same time that David and his people came to Bahurim; which, as Josephus z says, was a place near to Jerusalem; and, according to Bunting a, was little more than a mile from it; though elsewhere b he makes it three miles; so that had not David made the hasty flight he did, he had fallen into the hands of Absalom:
and Ahithophel with him: a famous counsellor, and who had been of David's privy council, and chief in it, see 2 Samuel 15:12 and whom David refers to in Psalms 55:12.
z Antiqu. l. 7. c. 9. sect. 4. a Travels, &c. p. 144. b Ib. p. 150.
